My 3 x gt grandfather ROGER PRICE was a shoemaker. I first found this out from his son's marriage cert (1862). I have found a possible entry in the 1881 census - boarder age 76, shoemaker, born Llangefni. there is an equivalent entry in 1871 -  listed as Robert Price, shoemaker, Llangefni, Lodger, age 67 born LLanddyfnan. I haven't had any success prior to 1871. This will prompt me to look again!

Hi Simon, my g. g. g. grandfather was Richard Dickinson (sometimes 'Dickenson') born Churchtown, Lancashire c.1811. Throughout his life he was variously described as a shoemaker, bootmaker or cordwainer (as according to his occupation listed in the parish records for his marriage in Liverpool in 1833 to Ann(e) Gerrard. The last trace I have of him, so far,  is in 1866 when he his mentioned in his capacity as father - and Shoemaker - of Mary Dickinson on her marriage certificate in 1866.
